Fidi is a phenomenal designer. So many amazing covers have already been posted. Here are a few not posted that really stood out to me as I was browsing the gallery.

It's all uphill til you get to the top
One of my favorite designers, a good friend and adviser 
My favs are:
I simply love the whole imagery and the pedestrian-looking-up-in-the-air POV, as well as the moody, slightly unsettling color palette. Could be an official teaser or regular one-sheet as well. And let's not forget that beautiful crafted reflection in the building on the right side.
Outstanding design with these "never seen before" vibes for this title. Will Smith looks totally badass in front of the crashed alien ship, right after the memorable "Welcome to earth!" scene. And the action doesn't stop on the back.
Usually not a big fan of collages because they can quickly look botchy and scream "patchwork" all over if the different elements are not put together well. This is definitely not the case with your Matrix cover: Everything looks placed thoughtfully, there's a good size contrast (elements becoming smaller from top to bottom) and the skin tones are perfectly matched. I also dig the two-part style on the back with the orb ball as a nice popping element.

With his extraordinary talent, Fidi has quickly developed from a nobody to a truly great designer. In my opinion, he is the best german designer I know. My personal favorite of his covers (Iron Sky) does not exist here, but I personally like this cover best of all his works, whereby (apart from "Valerian") I like his older designs better than the current ones. My favorites here would be:
